Very well done!

very realistic, it's good!

great work...

Nice label, but the lighting is off. The bottle shows lighting from the left, while the label is lit from the center. Other than that, this is very well done.

thank you MossyB, I can understand your point of view but I'd like to disagree. Don't be fooled by that highlight on the bottle neck. It's just the reflection of a small striplight to model the bottle.
If you look at it a bit longer, you will find that the light on the bottle is very even. I actually used 4 lights for this shot, one coming from behind to make the liquid inside glow, one from the bottom, one from the front and that small striplight to put a highlight on the bottle neck. If you look at books regarding product photography you will see how it's done. Lion beer would not want the light to be off center when advertising the product.

Very compelling with lots of appealing nuances. I do feel repeating "LION" after "STRONG, PROUD" is an unnecessary redundancy, however. What especially concerns me are the perfectly straight horizontal edges/elements of the labels that are clearly on a curved surface. (Note, for example, the disconnect between the curved bottom of the bottle and the straight bottom of the big label.)

I Like it!!!..

thank you all very much for your comments, I really appreciate them. About the straight horizontal lines: I do not see them to be a problem, as the label is pretty much level with the eye, whereas the bottom is slightly below. If you look at a bottle standing in front of you, you will notice that the higher your eyes go, the curvier the bottom gets. If your eyes are level with the bottom, you will see the bottom as a straight line. But thank you for pointing that out, it's an interesting aspect.

great..

Great job author...one of the best in the contest for sure...best of luck

Clean work of art! One of my favorites indeed!

Congrats well done

Congrats!!

Congrats on your Win

WOW! Looks extremely real!! Could've fooled me!

Cool, but I wonder why the labeling on the front of the jar doesn't affect its shadow.

Nice one!...

This is wonderful, like something you might find at a farmers market.

very nice...

nice..

colors and lighting are superb author

Definitely wonderful work!

Author, I like this !

Congrats!!

I would have banked my money on yours winning! GL on future projects, and congrats for 2nd

Congrats on your Win

I don't get the product, but that's OK. What bothers me is that the left and right edges of the label are much crisper than the left and right edges of the bottle the label is glued to.

Don't know. I've cleaned up the jar edges, so I hope it's better now. What I wanted to mean is that Dino Skinno is some kind of strange mix of who knows what stuff, quite similar to body creams, but for reptiles. Anyway, thank you for your remarks!

i like your idea author best luck

Thank you!!

Lovely author! Best of luck!

Thank you!

Congrats!!

Congrats on your Win

very cute entry (the label curve and blend is brilliant).. (Because of my eyes.. do you think an white Outer glow (instead of drop shadow) or a light white stroke might make the words "Baby's First" stand out more?.. (could just be my eyes..)IMHO

GREAT GARDEN!!!

Incredible entry! good LUCK

Yes, thank you, Ernie, that probably would have helped with the definition a bit. But it's all merged now and curved, with the white streaks of 'light' on the sides...and I'm outta time!

I didn't see the "baby's first," but saw the "Granny Style," and thought, "It's salsa made from babies?" LOL!

The bottom edge of the label curves up around the jar just a wee bit too much, as if it was put on crooked, but otherwise, this is very well done, especially the light refraction!

well i like your entry author
very realistic work
best luck

That's CRANKY, MossyB! lol - and yes, the label looks a little off to me, too, it was tricky as this is kind of a round-corner squarish kind of jar - and it was very late at night when I completed this, after looking at a computer all day. I did use guide lines for the warping, so they're evenly curved, though. Thank you for your comment - yours, too, kushpatel.

hahahahahahahahaha...great humor and neat work...gl author

I will take one please for my baby! Well done author!

congrats and a woo hoo!

Did he really say that? lol I like the overall feel of this. It looks like an ad from WWII. One small suggestion, tho. When you warp the label, try dragging the middle of the warp box down just a bit. That will give all the text a wrap around bend to it. GL

Thanks IDt8r

hehe great idea..

Putting milk into babies, that's a good design ....... cool

Pretty goooood!

Very very nice piece of work...GL

Cool work author
